Answer:

He reached the top of the tree on the 31st day

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance for the owl to climb is 93 units.

If the owl climbed 18 units up the tree every day without coming down, the owl would have taken 93/18 days to reach the top of the tree.

However, the owl descends by 15 units every night. This just reduces the overall distance covered at the end of each day's climb.

The net distance covered by the owl after each day is 18-15 units = 3 units of climb. This is the steady distance the owl gains up the three at the end of each day after the ascent and descent.

The time taken for the climb moving at this pace of 3 units per day will be

93 units / 3 units per day = 31 days

Anna [14]

Answer:

The 88% confidence interval for the proportion of defectives today is (0.053, 0.123)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 160, \pi = \frac{14}{160} = 0.088

88% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.12, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.12}{2} = 0.94, so Z = 1.555.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.088 - 1.555\sqrt{\frac{0.088*0.912}{160}} = 0.053

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.088 + 1.555\sqrt{\frac{0.088*0.912}{160}} = 0.123

The 88% confidence interval for the proportion of defectives today is (0.053, 0.123)

What is the exact volume of the cone?<br> base 7in <br> height 4in <br><br> PLEASE HELP ASAP
torisob [31]
The volume formula of a cone is \frac{1}{3}  \pi  r^{2} h the r is the radius and h is the height.  However, if you multiply by pi, you will get an approximated volume of the cone.  So we will multiply like this for now. \frac{1}{3}  r^{2} h Don't worry, we'll use pi in the end.  

I'm going to assume that 7 inches is your radius.  We need to plug in 7 for r and 4 in for h into the equation. Once we do that, it will look like this. \frac{1}{3}  7^{2} 4

\frac{1}{3} means we will need to divide one by 3.  That gives us 0.33333... now we have to multiply by 7^{2} we get 16.33333...  now the last thing we need to do is multiply by 4, which is h.  We get 65.33333.  Add pi and you have your answer. 65.333333333 \pi

Find the slope of the line on the graph write your answer as a fraction or a whole number not a mixed number or decimal.
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Change in y/change in x

starting at y intercept. up 1 unit (change in y) and over 1 unit (change in x) to get to next point on line.

slope is 1/1 which reduces to 1.
